Partner with Kissu
I help professionals and organizations navigate cultural complexity to improve workplace dynamics and client care.
As a licensed therapist, former United Nations employee, and first-generation Black immigrant, I create engaging learning experiences that blend clinical insight with real-world perspectives. I offer case consultations, tailored workshops, engaging talks, and one-time "Ask Me Anything" calls.

published on anti-racist approaches to healing collective trauma; and
conducted asylum evaluations—one of which was cited in a precedent-setting immigration case.
